Ke Xue: This police officer is too martial

Chapter 263 The Theory of Relativity
A few days later, at Suzuki's residence.

In the afternoon, Makino and a few others sat in the hall chatting.

What was different from the previous few days was that this time in the hall besides the sisters Makino and Ayako, there was also Kyogoku Makoto who looked a little nervous.

Kyogoku really came back last night.

Unlike the previous times they met, Kyogoku Makoto was wearing a clean and tidy black suit and a pair of square glasses without lenses.

This kind of dress is actually the work of Yuanzi.

Since Sonoko already knew that her parents were going to meet Kyogoku Makoto this time, she had already made a plan in advance.

She specifically asked Kyogoku Makoto to change into "formal" clothes and wear a pair of gentle glasses before coming, so as to offset his image as a "stubborn warrior" in his mother's mind.

Sonoko knew that her father Suzuki Shiro did not care about these things, and he was even a "fighting fan" himself, so his attitude towards Kyogoku Makoto was very good from the beginning.

But mother Tomoko is different. She doesn't like rough "things" like fighting, and she cares much more about so-called "superficial etiquette" than her father.

She also knew that the investigation materials about Kyogoku Makoto had probably already been placed in front of her mother.

However, in order to help Kyogoku Makoto leave a good impression in front of his "strict" mother, she specifically asked Kyogoku Makoto to dress more formally before coming.

Makino looked at Kyogoku Makoto, who was obviously a little nervous, and chuckled, "Kyogoku, there's no need to be so nervous. I don't know what Sonoko said to you, but your uncle and aunt are very good people, don't worry~"

Kyogoku touched the back of his head in embarrassment: "Do I really look nervous? To be honest, I feel much more nervous now than before I participated in the finals of previous competitions..."

Hearing what Kyogoku Makoto said, Sonoko encouraged him, "So you're nervous too, Makoto. But... don't worry! You're so good, mom will definitely recognize you! And I'm here, don't worry!"

Although Sonoko was very "sure", Makino still saw some nervousness in her expression.

This is quite normal. After all, which girl doesn’t want her chosen lover to be truly recognized by her parents?

Although he couldn't say it directly, Makino felt that Sonoko's worries were actually not necessary.

The Suzukis had already sent people to conduct a detailed investigation on Kyogoku Makoto.

Judging from their personalities and the way they do things, if they really objected to Sonoko and Kyogoku Makoto's relationship, they wouldn't have specifically asked Sonoko to invite Kyogoku Makoto to have dinner together.

However, these are just Makino's guesses after all, and naturally he can't tell Sonoko directly now.

Before they could talk any more, everyone heard various noises coming from outside the mansion.

After hearing the sound, everyone stood up and walked towards the door.

Doorway.

The old butler and the maid who had been waiting here for a long time stood on the left and right sides of the door respectively, and stretched out their hands to help the Suzuki couple who were about to arrive to open the door.

Within seconds, Shiro Suzuki and Tomoko Suzuki walked through the door and into everyone's sight.

After seeing the two, Yuanzi patted her cheeks, then immediately stepped forward and greeted them with a smile: "Dad, Mom! Long time no see, I missed you a long time~ I..."

Before Sonoko could finish her prepared lines, Suzuki Tomoko snorted in dissatisfaction and interrupted Sonoko with narrowed eyes: "Sonoko, don't act out this boring drama. You haven't said anything like this to us since you were four years old."

Yuanzi: "..."

Sonoko's smile froze on her face. She turned her head pitifully to look at Makino and Ayako, and blinked rapidly, as if to say: "Is my performance really that exaggerated? ! Please save the situation quickly!!!"

Makino and Ayako smiled at each other and walked up to say a simple hello to the Suzuki couple.

After a brief chat with Makino, Suzuki Tomoko shifted her attention to Kyogoku Makoto who was standing nearby.

After noticing Suzuki Tomoko's gaze, Kyogoku Makoto lowered his head nervously and said, "Nice to meet you. My name is Kyogoku Makoto, and I'm currently Sonoko's boyfriend. Please give me your advice!"

After hearing Kyogoku Makoto's straightforward remarks, an inexplicable light flashed in the eyes of Suzuki Shiro and Suzuki Tomoko at the same time.

Yuanzi twirled her hair with her fingers, her face blushing: "Ah Zhen..."

Suzuki Tomoko looked at Kyogoku Makoto carefully, sighed softly, and said slowly: "Although it's still a little early, we didn't have a good lunch today, so let's talk while we eat. Is this okay... Mr. Kyogoku?"

Kyogoku Makoto nodded quickly.

Seeing this, Suzuki Tomoko signaled with her eyes to the old butler not far away. The old butler immediately bowed slightly, walked to the front of the crowd to lead the way.

……

Soon after, inside the restaurant.

As soon as everyone sat down, the old butler asked the maids to bring the dishes that had been prepared long ago to the table.

Judging from the speed and appearance of Suzuki Tomoko and Suzuki Shiro eating, they were not "bluffing" but were really hungry.

Unlike the Suzuki couple who were eating heartily and Makino and Ayako who were savoring the food carefully, Sonoko and Kyogoku Makoto were also eating but their attention did not seem to be on the food.

Every time Kyogoku Makoto took a bite, he would reach out to adjust his glasses, looking very reserved.

After a while, Suzuki Tomoko wiped her mouth elegantly, looked up at Kyogoku Makoto who was quietly eating the food on the plate not far away, and said:

"It must be Sonoko who asked you to dress like this, right? Take off those glasses. They are disturbing your meal, aren't they? Don't worry. We in the Suzuki family are not so particular."

Hearing this, Kyogoku Makoto was stunned for a moment, then quickly turned his head to look at Sonoko beside him.

Without waiting for Sonoko to respond, Suzuki Shiro smiled and said, "Don't be so nervous. We've heard Sonoko mention you a long time ago! I'm very sorry. Since I like fighting very much, I have investigated your information privately.

I didn't expect you to be so good that you could win 400 consecutive karate matches! Oh, by the way... I remember the media gave you a great title, 'The Kick Prince'!"

Seeing her father talking endlessly about Kyogoku Makoto's "achievements", Sonoko subconsciously looked at her mother beside her with concern.

In her impression, her mother not only did not like fighting, but also did not want her to find a "martial artist who only knew how to fight."

Just when she thought her mother would interrupt her father as usual, she found that her mother acted as if she hadn't heard anything and silently sipped the red wine in front of her.

Sonoko: “?”

After a while, Suzuki Shiro, who was chatting with Kyogoku Shin about "Karate", suddenly changed the subject and chuckled:
"Kyogoku, although Sonoko is a little willful and usually careless...but you should know that this child has a sincere heart! I hope you can be more tolerant..."

Hearing this, Kyogoku Makoto nodded seriously: "Mr. Suzuki, please rest assured! Sonoko is the kindest girl I have ever met. No matter what happens... I will protect her!"

Sonoko: “???”

Sonoko looked at Kyogoku Makoto and his father in front of her in astonishment, her pupils shrinking slightly.

Weren't they talking about karate just a second ago?

Why are we suddenly talking about this?!
and……

Thinking of this, Yuanzi slowly turned her head and looked at her mother.

In the face of Sonoko's shocked gaze, Suzuki Tomoko also looked at Kyogoku Makoto seriously and spoke slowly: "You have an upright personality, are resolute and taciturn... You are indeed excellent. Sonoko will be in your care from now on. Of course... You are still too young now, so we can talk about marriage later."

Sonoko: “!!!”

After hearing her mother's words, Sonoko was stunned for a moment. "Is this... is this still the mother I know? ! "

Ayako, who was next to Makino, also looked at her mother in surprise and subconsciously covered her mouth with her hands.

After dinner.

Suzuki Tomoko turned around and walked towards her room, saying she was tired from the journey.

As usual, Shiro Suzuki walked into the study and prepared to continue working on his work.

After the two left, Kyogoku Makoto looked at Sonoko beside him with a puzzled look on his face and asked quietly, "Sonoko, didn't you say that my aunt would definitely oppose my dating you, and that she would even scold you harshly like a devil?"

Before Kyogoku Makoto could finish his words, Sonoko covered his mouth with her hand.

However, before she covered Kyogoku Makoto's mouth, Makino and Ayako had already heard the key word "devil".

Makino looked at Sonoko with a smile: "Oh? So that's how Sonoko described your aunt to you~"

Ayako also looked at Sonoko with a smile: "Sonoko, you don't want your mother to know that you used this word to describe her, right?"

Yuanzi: "..."

……

An hour later, in the study.

Makino sat quietly on the sofa waiting for Suzuki Shiro to finish the work in his hands.

A few minutes later, Suzuki Shiro put down the pen in his hand, stretched, stood up and walked to sit opposite Makino: "Sorry, Ryuichi, I kept you waiting for so long! This information will be used in the company meeting tomorrow morning, so I must finish it tonight."

Makino chuckled and shook his head: "I am the one who should apologize for disturbing you so suddenly~"

Suzuki Shiro laughed and shook his head: "Okay, we are a family, so don't be so polite. Since you didn't bring Ayako with you... maybe you have something special to say to me?"

Makino nodded slightly and put away his smile: "You are right. In fact, this matter has something to do with the organization I mentioned last time."

Before Makino could finish, Suzuki Shiro's face suddenly changed and he clenched his fists in anger: "They attacked you again?!"

Seeing that Suzuki Shiro was obviously getting a little angry, Makino shook his head quickly: "No, they haven't done anything to me since the last incident. I accidentally got some information a few days ago...Uncle, do you know much about the Ooka family?"

Hearing what Makino said, Suzuki Shiro let out a breath and calmed down.

But then, he put a hand to his cheek and frowned, "Sure enough... an organization that has been entrenched in the dark for so many years would not have survived until now if there was no one supporting it.

Long Yi, I actually suspected that the organization was related to the Ooka family, but if that is true, it would be a bit troublesome..."

At this point, Suzuki Shiro sighed softly: "Although it is much better now, I heard from my father before that the relationship between our two families seemed to be very bad before.

You must have heard of this before, right? The Ooka family's position in the political field is like our Suzuki family's position in the business field. One of the two major political factions is controlled by them. The Ooka family is undoubtedly the strongest political family.

If that organization is really related to the Ooka family, then things will be tricky. I don't think they would support such a shady organization for no reason.

Unless this organization is important to them, or this organization has something they are interested in..."

……

At the same time, outside the Suzuki couple's room.

As soon as she parted with Kyogoku Makoto, Sonoko came to her parents' room.

She wanted to ask her mother why she had so "easily" agreed to her dating Kyogoku Makoto in the restaurant just now.

She clearly remembered that her mother's attitude towards this matter was completely different from now...

In order to prevent Kyogoku Makoto from thinking too much, she waited until Kyogoku Makoto walked into the guest room before going to find her mother.

After hesitating for a moment, Yuanzi finally knocked on the door.

——“Boom, boom”

"Mom, are you asleep?"

"not yet."

After entering the room, Sonoko saw her mother reading a book on a recliner.

Suzuki Tomoko slowly put down the book in her hand and turned to look at Sonoko: "What's wrong Sonoko?"

Yuanzi walked slowly to her mother and said straight to the point: "Mom, didn't you oppose our relationship before? Why did you suddenly change your mind?"

Suzuki Tomoko laughed and shook her head: "I was wondering what you were going to say. Didn't you ask me this question before?"

"Hmm?" Sonoko blinked in confusion.

Suzuki Tomoko glanced at the night outside the window, with a hint of anticipation in her tone: "We have heard from the housekeeper that Long Yi has been living here for the past few days, right~"

Sonoko: “!!!”

……

Not long after, outside the study.

——“Buzz buzz buzz”

Not long after Makino walked out of the study, he heard his cell phone vibrate with an incoming call.

The moment he heard the voice, Makino laughed and shook his head, then took out his cell phone.

The only person who could call him at this time was either Inspector Megure or Furuya Rei.

Especially the former, when he was still a police inspector, he would receive calls from Inspector Megure almost every night...

The next moment, when Makino saw the caller's name, a light flashed in his eyes: "Oh?"

On the phone screen, it was clearly displayed - "Kuroba Kaito".

After answering the phone, Kuroba Kaito's slightly nervous voice came from the other end of the phone:
——"Officer Makino, do you have anything to do tomorrow afternoon?"

"Tomorrow afternoon? Why do you ask?" A hint of curiosity flashed in Makino's eyes.

Hearing what Makino said, Kuroba Kaito on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment.

A few seconds later, Kuroba Kaito spoke again:
——"It seems you didn't watch the news tonight. You will know if you watch it... If you are free tomorrow afternoon, then I may be in trouble..."

Although the second half of Kaito's sentence was spoken very quietly, Makino still heard it clearly. He immediately contacted Bane in his mind and asked him to help him check the news for tonight.

In less than a moment, a line of large characters appeared in front of Makino.

——"The legendary jeweled sandals! A challenge from Consultant Suzuki to Kaito Kid!!"
